Hey everyone. I just acquired a Clipso T-FAL pressure cooker off a friend for $10! The only problem is there is no instrustions and the FAQ guide was pretty vague for this type of cooker...it has a pressure regulator valve on it that reads 0-2 with a steam release valve, there isn't a PSI gauge. So my question is how do I use this cooker to sterilize my jars effectively? Do I still need to cook them for 45 minutes with this cooker? When do I start the timing? When the cooking is done, do i set it to steam release and just wait? Anyone that has a T-FAL and sterilizes jars, please let me know how you do it. I am a complete newbie, so I won't be offended if you spell everything out for me. Thanks a lot.

I borrow my PC from a friend of mine, I had no idea how to use it or anything, it was just a big metal thing with a little metal thing on top of it. Valves? Gauges? I put the water in the bitch, turned on the stove, let it sit for 1/2 hr, zero contams.

Find the manufacturer's site and order directions . I don't pretend a wealth of physics knowledge (exactly what happens when a lid blows off inside, etc.), but it's a little metal thing that will be filled with 15 pounds per square inch. Don't use it without understanding how it works.
